Boss's Orders [Cyrus] (Cosmos Holo) 132/172 · Prize Pack Series Cards

Beating the market, or just riding it?

Not enough trading to say

It trades too rarely, or has too little recent price history, for a 2-month comparison with the market to mean anything.

Describes the last 2 months, not what happens next. Not investment advice.

Is this card interesting right now?

Quiet - 6 out of 100

It ranks above 7% of the cards we track. The score describes the conditions around the card today - how sellers are pricing it, how it is trending, how steadily it trades. Its weights were tuned on how cards moved over the following 60 days, so a high score is a tendency across many cards, not a forecast for this one - and it says nothing about whether you will enjoy owning the card.

Why is it interesting?

Sellers undercutting and softer recent move than most

Median asking prices sit below the recent-sales market reference - sellers are pricing more aggressively. The recent move is within this card's normal range, but weaker than most cards' moves this month.

Is it becoming more popular?

No - losing ground

Compared with the Pokemon market as a whole, so a rising tide does not count as popularity. In this market these trends have tended to keep going rather than reverse.

Is it expensive or cheap?

$8.59 - expensive for its set

At $8.59 it is expensive for its set - number 169 of 1059 by price. It costs more than 76% of other Rare cards we track. It is 16% below its 12-month high. Worth knowing: in this market cards near their highs have gone on to do better than deeply discounted ones, so a big discount is not automatically a bargain.

What makes this card unusual?

An ordinary Rare from a 4-year-old set

Rare is a widely printed rarity - 6,033 tracked cards share it. This is the Holofoil printing, which is priced as a completely separate market from the other printings of the same artwork.

Could you actually buy or sell it?

Slowly - it rarely trades

The price changed in 14% of our checks over the past year across 102 observations. TCGplayer's market price only updates when a copy sells, so a low figure means the price shown may be stale and any trend reading is built on very few real sales.

How does the grading fee compare?

Fee exceeds raw price

A roughly $22.00 grading fee is 256% of the $8.59 raw price. Raw price plus fee comes to about $30.59, before shipping, insurance or selling costs. That is a cost comparison, not an estimate of a graded copy's value. We track raw ungraded prices only - no graded sales and no population data. We cannot assess this copy's condition or tell you what a PSA 10 is worth. Check condition and comparable graded sales before deciding whether grading would pay off.
